Shaman will get their talent review in 1.11

According to Eyonix, shaman will get their talent review in 1.11 in addition to mages:
So, that's two class talent reviews plus the addition of a huge major dungeon in one patch?  I don't think we'll be seeing this thing until the end of June.

They'll probably get this patch out sooner. Shaman class review is really less work than the other classes.

Changes in the Shaman tree boil down to only a few things, hence why they can do mages in the same patch. Shamans need the following:

Restoration Tree:

- Remove improved Healing Totem. That talent is a complete and utter waste.
- Move Mana Tide from a 31 point talent. It's nice, but not a 31 point talent, especially with those awful prerequisites.

Enhancement Tree:

- Lots to change. This is the tree that requires a major overhaul.
- 2-h Weapons and Parry should be learned at the trainer, not a talent
- Stormstrike should be buffed, if it is to remain a 31 point talent. Currently, not worth 31 points. Similar to Warrior's 31 point Fury talent (lame-o!)
- Perhaps add more defensive talents?

Elemental:

- Probably the most balanced of the trees, as far as point investment to return goes. I wouldn't change anything, really.
